I just now checked the current Emacs master (commit 
00d107ebead8d710cbe339d9af717e6eb2f9f2ff) on Ubuntu 21.10 with patches 
current as of today, and things have gotten a bit worse.

Configuring with './configure --with-xwidgets', building and then 
starting with 'emacs -Q', and typing this:

(make-xwidget 'webkit "title" 500 500 '())

followed by C-j, causes the following text to be output to stderr:

-----

want WebKit to use a different signal

and the following text to be put into Emacs *Messages* buffer:

-----

I am using the default Ubuntu window manager. The command "env | grep 
'^XDG' | sort" outputs:
